6TB SAS vs 6TB SATA → (coming soon)
HGST Ultrastar and Seagate Enterprise Capacity drives in this range have the best published AFR rates. Backblaze data consistently shows HGST leading on reliability.
If your HBA supports 12G, prefer SAS-12G drives for future flexibility. The price premium over SAS-6G is usually small at these capacities.
8TB and above often use helium-sealed platters (lower friction, cooler, quieter). Helium drives are not refillable - a seal failure means replacement, but failure rates are very low.
Almost all drives at this capacity are 3.5" LFF. Ensure your server chassis has LFF bays, or use a 2.5" to 3.5" adapter if needed.
Yes. 6TB SAS drives are excellent for RAID 6 arrays. A 12-drive RAID 6 array gives you 60TB usable, which is a solid enterprise configuration. Both 7.2K nearline and refurb pulls work well.
HGST Ultrastar, Seagate Enterprise Capacity, and Dell/HP OEM drives are widely available. MDD offers new drives with 5-year warranties at competitive pricing.
Both new and refurbished 6TB SAS drives are available. Refurb units typically cost 40-60% less than new. For non-critical storage, refurb is excellent value. For production RAID arrays, new MDD drives with 5-year warranties offer peace of mind.

SAS enterprise HDDs suit nearline and backup workloads requiring dual-port multipath and high sustained throughput.
